0104


the queen’s birthday passed
there on that bench
where you touched my arm
and everything changed

winter passed and
you are no longer here
wrapped around me like the twine
you use everywhere
-but it won’t lead me back to you

in this city everyone is tall
and I don’t even reach their elbows
looking for a thread
of twine to pull
and lead me back to you

    you don't know
    that you are my water source,
    my very reservoir

    you fill all of me with
    a quenchless thirst
    an endless nourishment

    and all that I am
    beyond what I do
    is all my reach for you
